SOUTH BEND, Ind. – On Wednesday night, Oct. 7, at 6:30 p.m., Christ the King Lutheran Church in South Bend, Ind., 17195 Cleveland Road will be the host venue for a Broadway-style musical drama entitled “Mountain.”

The presentation will be offered for one night only as part of a 25 city tour across the midwest in preparation for a run Off-Broadway.

Written by Jonathan Richard Cring, winner of the Best Screenplay at The Top Ten Films in America, and directed by his son, Jon Russell Cring, the 90-minute production will be offered to the community on a “pass-the-hat” basis.

Mountain is the story of Jack Criswell, star quarterback for State College and bound for the NFL, who is seriously injured in the fourth quarter of the final game of the season. He uses the Sermon on the Mount as his text for providing youth a lifetime’s journey into faith and knowledge.

The public is invited to an evening of entertainment and inspiration for all ages. Seating is limited, so for more details, contact (574) 272-4306.
